We Are Now In Space.

The Oak and the Acorn can now be found at Spaceboy in Wilmington, DE. They have a bunch of cool other stuff as well, and they do a great job of supporting local artists of all kinds, so please support them if you can.

Satan's B-Day

Don't get me wrong, I love summer. But, as the thermometer whizzes past 100 again today, I'll admit I start to think about fall. Specifically, Halloween, which is totally my favorite holiday.

Last Halloween I went to a place in Philly called The Ox. It was definitely in my top 5 Halloweens yet. This being the night everyone gets to pretend to be someone else, they had a bunch of bands play all covers.

Rapid Cities did an amazing set of Fugazi covers and another band played all Neutral Milk Hotel. I never got to see either of those actual bands, so this was probably as close as I'll ever get, and it was pretty rad.

At midnight they had a demon summoning with candles and a pentagram and everything. They had even hung real chicken's feet from the ceiling of the "summoning room." It was dark except for the candles, so every once in a while one would graze your shoulder. No demon showed up, but there's always next year...

I'm not a religious person, but I had a chance to spend a few days at an ashram, and it was a pretty cool experience. It was very inspiring to be among a group of people living according to their consciences in a sustainable community outside the mainstream.

I had also heard there was going to be a harmonium performance while I was there, but I think I missed it.
